GameEx: 11 months later.

I purchased a GameEx key last June and have been working on getting it set up the way I've wanted on and off since then. I'm basically done, but have run into a handful of issues I was hoping to get some help with.

The really big thing is when using an external player (I like GameEx's built in player but it chokes on files it shouldn't), choosing Play All or Play Randomly creates a truly bad set of circumstances. You can exit the external player, but the next entry in the queue is served right up afterwards, ad nauseum. The only way to break the cycle is to kill GameEx itself.

This leads to a question: Is it possible to disable "Play All", "Play Randomly" and also the "Change View" entry? I hack ROMs so I'll break open the executable and figure out a way to do this if need be (Should it not be doable via GameEx's config, which it's looking like so far).

Basically, other than these issues I'm extremely happy with GameEx and what I've been able to accomplish with it on my mini ITX home-made console/Blu-Ray+DVD player. It was well worth the $25!

i have to admit, i'm a huge fan of this setup. it's inspired me to explore the possibility of building my own mini-itx based system and basically copying many aspects of your software configuration.

in terms of media playback, i decided to use xbmc for media as opposed to gameex to side-step some of the issues you're running into. vsilvalopes created a very tasteful custom front-end which gives you the option of either entering xbmc or gameex on startup.

i'm sure there should be a way to modify the 'play-all' functionality, but it'll probably take some digging.
